Artsy Fartsy

Today I went to the 4th St Art Festival, in Bloomington. I enjoyed the art and the company with me.

I have an appreciation for art. I'm not the best artist, but I'd like to think I'm kinda artsy fartsy.

Art that I really appreciate:
Photography-I am a photographer so it interest me to see the work of other photographers; especially those who have been at it for a while. I like to look at more advanced photographers work to inspire and challenge myself.
Theater- (Sigh). The art of acting. I love theater. I love acting. You get to step outside of yourself for a little while and be something different. Stepping out of your reality into something different, while at the same time trying to make it real to someone else. That sounds so stupid, but it makes sense in my head.
Music- I have a huge appreciation for music. I think it is just amazing how someone can take lyrics and beats and conform them into this masterpiece. My favorite song is "I'll Be Missing You" by Puff Daddy, Faith Evans, and 112. I was 10 years old when I first heard that song and it really amazed me how someone could take what they were feeling and put it into a song like that. I know most of you are shocked. You thought I would pick a Michael Jackson song as my favorite song ever. Tricky tricky.
Dance- Dancing might be the most fascinating to me. The way a person can manipulate their body to the beat of a song is just really fascinating. In general I prefer hip-hop. I mean I like all sorts of dance, but there is just something about hip-hop that I love.


I also enjoy paintings, functional pottery, sculptures, and architecture.

Art I don't enjoy is jewelry. I'm not real big on jewelry. It's not my thing. The only piece of jewelry I plan on wearing on a regular basis will be my wedding ring.

I went into Lowe's with my sister today and looked around. As weird as it sounds I love going in these places and picking out bathroom tiles and paint colors and appliances and kitchen stuff and etc. I find enjoyment out of it because one day I will be a real adult with a big girl place of my own that I will get to design. Weird, but there it is.

Fun Fact: I'm a sucker for a good string instrument.
